Who else can't sleep the night before their fancy new gears arrive?

I have a BMC Ultradac arriving tomorrow and knowing me, I'll be awake all night. I'll be lucky if I get 3 hrs of sleep.

I usually make it about 7 1/2 minutes in before falling asleep. Works everytime. More powerful than Hf-fi anticipation -- or, regret.

I'm brewing some coffee as we speak. Got a lot of day left. Those "universe stuffs" programs can be a bit of a mine field. While mostly calm (read: boring) some of them involve big things blowing up with frequent flashes of light. It's a bit like trying to go to sleep with a strobe light going off. So, I've learned to exclude titles that involve "creation", "demise", "destruction", etc. Just sayin'.
